November 20, 2024Nov 20 Jay can you explain when MTV is disclosing any sales? And if that is, are they somewhere posted where I can go and observe anything? You know why I am talking about, I keep huge records, any information would be really really appreciated.. ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️
November 25, 2024Nov 25 Honestly whats the point of OCC keeping any song’s total sales for themselves? It doesnt male sense does it? :cry: I wish they would share more! Jay can you explain when MTV is disclosing any sales? And if that is, are they somewhere posted where I can go and observe anything? You know why I am talking about, I keep huge records, any information would be really really appreciated.. ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️ I don't actually have MTV so I can't watch the programmes :( So it's really reliant on if someone has the channel and happens to catch that they're airing a run down and then noting down the sales. The schedule can be seen here: https://www.mtv.co.uk/tv-schedule/mtv-music and we can see that there's an Ed Sheeran Top 20 at 10am on 27th Nov, which is possibly a repeat. If they repeat shows I'm not sure if they refresh the sales information.
December 10, 2024Dec 10 From MTV: 01. Sound Of The Underground - 1.1M+ 02. The Promise - 805K+ 03. Love Machine - 625K+ 04. Call The Shots - 488K+ 05. Jump - 472K+ 06. Something Kinda Ooooh - 453K+ 07. Can't Speak French - 304K+ 08. I'll Stand By You - 287K+ 09. Biology - 286K+ 10. Something New - 279K+ Thank you for posting! I wonder if they’re very recent totals? Biology is now so close to overtaking I’ll Stand By You! :o The MTV data shared on 28th April 2024: it doesn't seem possible to pinpoint what the cut off date for the data is. These updates showed that their sales had been boosted since November 2023 (due to the reunion announcement), because all 5 singles were selling faster than they had done from March 2023 to November 2023. If we just say for the sake of argument that the data comes from Friday 26th April, and the new data is from Friday November, then their average weekly sales (over 29 weeks) have been: 3,448 - Sound of the Underground (but we can take this with a pinch of salt given the 1.1m/1.2m rounding up) 2,379 - Love Machine 1,896 - The Promise 1,103 - Call the Shots 931 - Jump Hopefully the airing of the tour has provided a nice boost again for their streaming! Presumably their weekly sales will decrease somewhat if they enter another period of inactivity, but if those average sales continued then... Sound of the Underground would certify 3xPlatinum (1.8m) in 2028 (presumably 2xPlatinum isn't too far off, whether it happens this year or in 2025) The Promise would pass 1 million in 2026, and certify 2xPlatinum (1.2m) in 2028 Love Machine would pass 1 million in 2027 and certify 2xPlatinum (1.2m) in 2028 Call the Shots would go Platinum (600k) in 2026 Jump would go Platinum (600k) in 2026 ... so I'd probably take these estimated years as "at the very earliest"! I recorded the MTV episode on April 27, I Shared the information with Liam on the 28th. Obviously I don't know for sure, but I reckon the sales were from late March/early April.
December 11, 2024Dec 11 Ooh thank you for sharing those sales back then! :wub: You're welcome Jay! :D I'll try and keep an eye out for more updated MTV lists in the future ^_^
December 20, 2024Dec 20 "Crazy Stupid Love" ft. Tinie Tempah is FINALLY certified Platinum! :cheeseblock:
January 17Jan 17 SOUND OF THE UNDERGROUND IS FINALLY CERTIFIED 2X PLATINUM!!!!!! :cheeseblock: :cheeseblock: :cheeseblock: :cheeseblock: :cheeseblock: :cheeseblock: @1880277865704398920
January 17Jan 17 Averaged 2,143 between now and November 2023, so it was on ~1.18m as of November 2024 (when the OCC rounded its total to 1.2m).
January 17Jan 17 Amazing news! :wub: :heart: :cheeseblock: In 2023 I had estimated that it might take until January 2026 for it to go 2xPlatinum, so it’s fantastic that it’s done it a whole year earlier. The power of their reunion, the tour and to some extent being a part of the Saltburn soundtrack too! It gives me faith that some of the singles we’re waiting on going silver could cross over sooner than originally anticipated. I’m so eager for The Show to get there, and Untouchable.
